Drop Intolerant Attitudes,

Both Religious And Ethnic

March 9, 1994

Those writers who claim that Christians like the Pilgrims and the Puritans established this country tell only half the truth. Both the Pilgrims and the Puritans founded colonies to escape religious persecution in England and then the Puritans displayed the same religious intolerance of their persecutors by driving Roger Williams to establish the colony of Rhode Island.

Throughout world history Christians have preyed upon and massacred other Christians. Is this why Christ died?

Instead of reclaiming America for Christ, let us reclaim America for the people and eliminate religious and ethnic intolerance.
